Hi again,
It's not that I'm looking to be euphoric, but just to have choices in life and feel something from the choices made and that it matters. Right now I could care less about anything. People do things automatically, while I'm left watching myself do something which makes for a very passive life. That is how I feel.
> look, we all know that antidepressants are not "feel good" pills. sometimes, early on you get some euphoria. celexa was my dream drug and i took that years into treatment with ad's.
> the scary thing is when they wear off ond you are so depressed you forget to see the doctor.
> i had about 7 or 8 great months on celexa and then--- splat.
> the meltdowns are so discouraging.
> but, back on topic, if you felt good for one day on effexor and since have not you need to re-evaluate the choice with your doctor and fine-tune your dosage or change meds. don't hang in there if you feel bad. the meds are all so different.
